Hallways, stairways and larger living spaces often need a light that can be switched from more than one place, and a dimmer that makes the same room work for conversation and for reading. In Rolling Meadows, Oakbridge Home Services (Somax Group LLC) installs and replaces outlets and switches, with three-way switches and dimmers given special attention, together with ordinary outlet replacement.
What this work includes
- Three-way switch replacement for lights controlled from two locations, such as hallways and stairways
- Dimmer switch installation, including LED-compatible dimmers for living rooms and bedrooms
- Light switch replacement for single switches that stick, crack or feel loose
- Standard outlet replacement for outlets that are worn or damaged
- GFCI outlet installation for kitchens, bathrooms and outdoors
- USB combo outlet installation
- Outlet and switch cover and plate replacement
- Troubleshooting a dead outlet by replacement when the outlet itself has failed
Examples include replacing both switches for a hallway light, adding a dimmer to a bedroom, and replacing a worn outlet in the same visit. For a three-way switch, tell us about both switch locations and send a photo of each one.
